Here's a picture of the set up for Splatoon 2 voice chat and presumably every other game that has voice chat.

I don't know why they didn't go with bluetooth to avoid all these wires, plus it's a reminder of the fact you have to connect to your phone too. A very Nintendo way to do this, and not the good kind of Nintendo way...

A very annoying convoluted solution to a voice chat problem that really shouldn't exist this day and age, but at least it's only a problem if you want to use voice chat and play online in handheld mode. When docked, it should be fine

I'd probably order that special edition if you got a physical copy of the game, still not ready to 100% digital (and I doubt I will be anytime soon). Splatoon 2 looks very good from what I've seen so far, still need to watch more stuff from E3 though.

Yeah the direct was really good, Splatoon 2 looks a lot of fun (which was to be expected considering the first game), will definitely pick it up at some point this year, depends what else I fancy playing when I get my Switch in August alongside Mario + Rabbids.
